About the Wineries:

CG Di Arie: "In the year 2000, Chaim and Elisheva purchased a 209-acre parcel of land between the south and middle forks of the Cosumnes River in the Shenandoah Valley of the Sierra Foothills. High in the rolling hills at 1700 elevation, this region is graced with hot days, temperate nights, cool moderating breezes and excellent loam soils. Chaim knew that with proper attention to detail this rugged and untapped region would be capable of producing grapes that to yield superior Estate wines. As vineyard cultivation began, Chaim and Elisheva worked together co-designing their cutting-edge, 12,000 square foot winemaking facility."

Fiddletown Cellars: "Fiddletown Cellars' wines are meticulously handcrafted from fruit grown in California's most prestigious regions. Our wines are hand-crafted in extra-small lots with extreme care given to every detail. By keeping every vineyard lot separate from vine to barrel we are able to offer wines of distinction and value.

Fiddletown Cellars is privately held and sits on 23 acres in the heart of Fiddletown. Fiddletown, a picturesque and sleepy town, was founded around 1849 during the Gold Rush. Fiddletown is one of California's smallest AVAs and is located within the larger Sierra Foothills AVA.

At an elevation of 1800 feet, the vineyards have the longest growing season in Amador Country, allowing for maximum flavor concentration and exceptional balance year in and year out."

Bella Grace Vineyards: "Bella Grace Vineyards plants at no more than 538 vines per acre with 9x9 spacing. All vines have disease and drought resistant root stock and are pruned for low yields and high quality grapes. Sustainable vineyard practices are employed at all times, respectful of the environment. Good winegrowing combined with the granitic composition of Amador County's rolling hills, plus a climate of cool nights and warm days, all help to produce quality grapes for our award winning wines."

Scott Harvey Wines: " Scott Harvey Wines, the initial line of wines in the “Creative Wine Concepts” portfolio, was created out of market demand for Scott’s wines – “niche wines that over deliver.” The Scott Harvey line focuses on Scott’s roots – Zinfandel, Syrah and Barbera from the Sierras. Approachable, food friendly and full of luscious fruit, these wines have struck a chord in the marketplace."

Bojorn Winery: "Providing the valley with labor services since 1991, the Borjón’s had always enjoyed the taste of wine and had always dreamt of having a winery of their own. Seeing first hand the tremendous growth in the valley and the addition of so many wineries only added to the desire of one day being winery owners.

Essentially growing up on a vineyard, Isy was groomed for leadership. In 2005, at the age of only 19, he was handed the reigns to the families vineyard management business. That same year he started his own family marrying his beautiful wife Eliana. Taking what knowledge they had gained over years of working with vineyards and wineries, they selected some of the best grapes Amador County produces to create Borjón wines. Combining their own ideas with local wine making techniques, they crafted Borjón Winery's version of great Amador County Wines. With the help of his parents, Isy and Eliana opened the tasting room in May of 2009."
